Radio Ad

Boston, MA – Today, Romney for President released a new radio ad titled “Focus.” Ohio voters now have a choice to make. Mitt Romney has the vision and leadership to solve America’s challenges. As Governor of Massachusetts, he worked with Republicans and Democrats to eliminate a $3 billion deficit and lower the unemployment rate. That’s the type of leader Ohioans need in Washington.

AD FACTS: Script For “Focus”:

SENATOR ROB PORTMAN: “Hi, this is US Senator Rob Portman. We’re down to the final days of this campaign, and we’ve got a choice to make. I’m supporting Mitt Romney, because he’s got the vision, the leadership, and a practical economic plan to solve the many challenges we face. With Mitt Romney as our president, we’ll work together for North American energy independence, job creation, and economic growth here in Ohio.”

VOICEOVER: “As Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney showed how much you can accomplish when you work with the other party. Working with a legislature that was eighty-five percent Democrats, Mitt Romney eliminated a three-billion dollar deficit, left the state with a two-billion dollar rainy-day fund, took the unemployment rate below five percent, and added tens of thousands of jobs. And as president, he’ll work with both Republicans and Democrats to cut the deficit that threatens future generations.”

CHICAGO -- As highlighted in Obama for America’s new radio ad, retired four star general and former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed President Obama for re-election last week in an interview with CBS News. Powell enthusiastically cited the President’s leadership in bringing us back from the brink of economic collapse, ending the war in Iraq, putting in place a plan to end the war in Afghanistan, and his strong record of fighting terrorism as reasons for his endorsement.

Like Secretary Powell, the American people know that President Obama is a strong, steady and decisive leader with an affirmative vision to move our country forward.

“Endorsed” will air in Florida, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Virginia, New Hampshire, Ohio, Iowa, Nevada, and Colorado.

Does President Obama know how much his defense cuts will hurt us? Sure, his flippant remarks insult Mitt Romney, but do they also expose how President Obama views the world and America’s place in it?”

AD FACTS: Script For “NUESTRO FUTURO”

PAUL RODRIGUEZ: “Hi friends! I’m comedian Paul Rodriguez. This election is about the type of future we want to leave to our children. We Hispanics sacrifice because we believe in the promise of this great country. But President Obama has taken us down the road of unemployment, more poverty and an exorbitant debt that puts that promise at risk. The question we must ask ourselves is: do we want to leave our children a country with less opportunities? I don’t belong to any political party, but I do believe in the opportunities that the United States offers all of us. This is why I am supporting Mitt Romney. Romney has a plan to create 12 million new jobs, reduce the debt and reform education. President Obama tried, but couldn’t do it. Our democracy allows us the choice to take a new path. For the future of this country, for the future of our children, I will be voting for Mitt Romney.”

Boston, MA – Today, Romney for President released a new radio ad titled “No Laughing Matter.” Last night, Vice President Joe Biden said “We don’t need more M1 tanks.” This would take away one of the most vital weapons in our military arsenal – made in Ohio – and the Obama budget would shut down the only M1 tank plant in the country. The Obama-Biden plan to cut our defense budget will impact jobs in Ohio and impact our country’s national security and it is one more reason Ohio can’t afford four more years of this administration.

AD FACTS: Script For “No Laughing Matter”:

VOICEOVER: “Vice President Joe Biden said it…”

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: “We don’t need more M1 tanks.”

VOICEOVER: “…and in Lima, Ohio, we heard it loud and clear.”

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: “We don’t need more M1 tanks.”

VOICEOVER: “While the world grows more hostile and unstable every day, the White House wants to take away one of the most vital weapons in our arsenal--made right here in Ohio. Giving our troops the tools they need just isn’t a priority for Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Their own budget would shut down America’s only M-1 tank plant.”

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: “We don’t need more M1 tanks.”

VOICEOVER: “As an Ohioan, you know that’s not just an attack against our ability to defend our freedom. It’s also an attack against our jobs and our way of life. Two attacks. Which one is worse?”

Obama for America released two new radio advertisements titled “On Point” and “Ronnie,” which underscore the President’s commitment to restoring the values that made our country great and created the strongest middle class the world has ever known.

“On Point” features former President Bill Clinton discussing the clear choice in this election between moving forward with President Obama’s vision to create an economy that’s built to last, or going back to the same failed top-down economic policies that crashed our economy and punished the middle class. The ad is running in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.

“Ronnie” features Morehouse College student Ronnie Mosley as he discusses how President Obama’s policy initiatives gave him a shot at success. From expanding health care coverage for over 3 million young people who can now stay on their parents’ insurance plans until they are 26, to putting quality, affordable education within reach for every American, the President is laying the foundation for an economy built to last that benefits all Americans and believes America prospers when we’re all in it together. The ad is running in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.
